If Angle had come right out of the Olympics and dedicated himself to starting an MMA career, I think he could of been one of the all time greats. Unfortunately, he didn't, and the injuries he obtained while working for the WWE & TNA have pretty much left him incapable of being successful in MMA.
IMHO.

IMHO. | i couldnt agree more. he really should have taken up MMA right after the olympics but im pretty sure at that point he was looking for the biggest payday possible. kurt angle is one of my favorite guys from WWE and was entertaining as hell while he was there. with that being said i dont really think he wasted his career, but i do believe he should have continued to legitimetly compete before he banged his body up doing pro wrestling.

He only wants to fight once in MMA???
I can see a Ken Shamrock vs Kurt Angle MMA match being HUGE... I see EXC hosting this fight

He watched Brock look dominant against a real fighter, and he's thinking he can do it. Stay away my friend. You've had a serious injury and you're getting older.
Don't get me wrong, he could beat some people with some training, but not anyone worth a damn imo.

A metaphor for all Guns n Roses fans out there:
Kurt Angle is the Chinese Democracy of MMA.

I met Kurt Angle at the mall once. He gave me a dead fish handshake.
That's pretty much it.

i just remember him coming out to that song during his wwe days and the fans shouting "YOU SUCK!" "YOU SUCK!'... I hope his MMA debut is similar.

That's pretty much it. | Haha crazy. Marquart would reverse atomic suplex Angle and then step on his chest and pose. Best of luck to Angle but I really think he'd make a great coach at an established gym.
